Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua can end a fight in several ways. They are two of the most reputed champions of the era and have appeared invincible for a large part of their careers.
Hence, the potential showdown between them can see either man go down. Although Tyson Fury appears to be the favorite, Anthony Joshua will have his legitimate chances. While several analysts have belittled Joshua in the mix, Dillian Whyte isn’t ready to claim the same.
‘The Body Snatcher’, who suffered his maiden career defeat against ‘AJ’ in 2015, knows the capability of the unified champion. So, Dillian Whyte connected with the Toe 2 Toe podcast to preview the Fury vs Joshua matchup.
